Bandeoke — Live Band Karaoke
Your Guests on the Mic. Our Band Behind Them.
This isn't karaoke with a laptop. It's live band karaoke — your guests perform, we back them up, the room goes wild.
The Concept
Karaoke Without the Backing Track
Standard karaoke works off a pre-recorded track and a screen. Bandeoke works with a full live band. The difference is enormous — and your guests will feel it the moment they step up to the mic.
The band responds to the performer. If they slow down, the band slows down. If they improvise, the band improvises. If they forget the words, the band covers for them. The experience is dynamic, generous, and unlike anything a laptop and speaker system can provide.
The result? The most talked-about party format of the year. Every single time.
The Process
How a Bandeoke Night Works
Simple for you to organise. Incredible for your guests to experience.
01
Song Requests
Guests submit song requests in advance or on the night using a simple sign-up process. We work from an extensive songbook of crowd favourites.
02
Called to the Stage
Each performer is called up, introduced and handed the mic. The crowd is already on their side before the first note plays.
03
Live Band Performance
Our musicians back every performer live. The energy, the spontaneity, the crowd reaction — it's a completely different experience to anything pre-recorded.
04
Memories Made
Guaranteed standing ovations, unlikely heroes and moments your guests will genuinely be talking about for years. That's the Bandeoke guarantee.

What Happens After a Bandeoke Night
★★★★★
My 50th birthday party was entirely upstaged by my very quiet colleague performing an absolutely unhinged version of Livin' on a Prayer. With a live band behind him. I've never laughed so hard.

We surprised our wedding guests with Bandeoke at 9pm. The room went from polite applause to absolute chaos in about two songs. Best decision we made for the whole night.

We used Bandeoke for our company Christmas party. Even our MD got up. Even our MD. Nobody saw that coming. The team is still talking about it three months later.

FAQ
Common Questions
We have an extensive live repertoire covering pop, rock, indie, soul, Motown, 80s, 90s and 2000s. A full songbook is shared with you ahead of the event so guests can plan their moment.
We've never had an event where people didn't get up. Our host knows how to warm a crowd and get people to the stage. Once the first person goes up, the rest usually can't wait. There's no pressure — but there's always a queue.
Yes — a hybrid format is very popular. We typically do a full band set first to warm the room, then transition into Bandeoke. We can also reverse the format if preferred. Your night, your structure.
We recommend a minimum of 40 guests to generate the right energy and ensure enough variety in performers. Bandeoke is at its best with 80–200 guests, but we've delivered it successfully for both smaller and much larger crowds.
